The NBHA operates several Asset Management Projects (AMP) with affordable and public housing units located within the City of New Brunswick.

NBHA operates a Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program of approximately 968 vouchers and owns/manages a number of commercial, residential and multi-family properties through its redevelopment activities and with separate redevelopment partners.

The NBHA employs a staff of 16 with an operating budget of approximately $14 million dollars with total assets equaling $53 million dollars. All staff and management serve under an Executive Director who is hired by the Board of Commissioners to run the housing and redevelopment authority’s operations and who also serves as the Board’s Secretary.
